Chapter 47: A New Discovery, the Doomsday Date That Will Change!

『Innate Talent ‘Arrival’ chosen』

『Simulation start』

『Day 1: Doomsday arrived as scheduled, and you chose SC-35 (this is a place code; SC stands for Su City) as your doomsday spawn point.』

『Day 2: The temperature suddenly dropped and panic spread, and although there was not much shortage of food at home, Chen Keqing still dragged you out to purchase supplies, but so many people were buying that you returned empty-handed.』

『Day 3: Horrifying news kept coming in.』

『…』

『Day 17: You defeated the challenger again and cultivated a new informant.』

『Day 18: You used Arrival for the first time in earnest by setting the teleportation start point at Avalon, teleporting only yourself to BC-18 Safe Zone where you handed a middle-aged woman a hefty bundle before choosing to teleport back.』

You now clearly understood how to use Arrival, and you were glad you had the Talent Global Link; otherwise using Arrival would not be convenient.

『Day 61: When the heavy fog arrived, you had already deployed seven informants in Yun City and sent them all into the heavy fog, six of whom returned empty-handed while one got lost in the fog.』

The informant who got lost encountered a terrifying creature in the heavy fog, and because you shared the informant’s vision, you also witnessed an indescribable monster, forcing you to consume one layer of healing energy before you finally recovered.

『Day 62: You continued to manipulate the informants to search for Qi Xiaoye’s whereabouts in Yun City.』

『Day 101: You arrived at BC-10 and continued to oversee intelligence operations.』

『Day 153: You obtained intelligence on a containment object, or rather a mythic creature, but you did not consider investigating further because the terrifying creature you saw on Day 61 still filled you with dread, and you knew that countless other beings capable of killing you lurked in that unknown sea of darkness, so you refused to take risks.』

『Day 305: You still could not find Qi Xiaoye.』

『Day 315: During struggles with other forces, you acquired intelligence on a nuclear bomb, and under your orchestration, a nuclear bomb was detonated, causing an unknown number of casualties.』

『Day 325: A massive earthquake occurred and Falling Stars appeared…』

Congratulations, you have completed all the apocalypse simulations.

『Simulation Assessment: The oldest and strongest emotion of humanity is fear, and you have had the privilege to taste it.』

『Please choose one of the following three simulation rewards:』

『1. Arrival (Gold)』

『2. Kiss of Healing (Green)』

『3. Thousand-Mile Ears (Green)』

Su Ze’s gaze at the desk was somewhat fixed.

It was nothing else but that this round of simulation contained quite a few points worth pondering.

First was the intelligence regarding Qi Xiaoye, which still showed little progress, so he set that aside.

Then there was the golden Talent he selected in this round of simulation, which was also straightforward.

The key to using the Talent lay in knowing the exact target point to teleport to safely, but he decided not to delve into that for now.

What truly made Su Ze think at this moment were two points.

The first was the terrifying creature he saw on Day 61 of doomsday.

The simulation did not clearly describe what that being was.

However, merely by looking it in the eye, he had to rely on Fallen Benefaction to heal himself.

In other words, if he had had no healing ability, he might have died just from a glance…

“What grade could that terrifying being be?”

As that question formed, Su Ze silently heightened his vigilance for doomsday.

On heavy fog days, it was best not to wander out.

He then realized that in previous simulations, each time the heavy fog appeared, Qi Xiaoye became very afraid.

When he first saw this simulation content, he thought Qi Xiaoye was simply traumatized from getting lost in the fog.

But now it seemed she was more sensitive to those terrifying beings and therefore feared the heavy fog…

Apart from this intelligence on the mythic creature, there was another new piece of information that caught Su Ze’s attention.

“Why has the doomsday end date advanced?”

It had always been Day 330 when Falling Stars appeared, marking the end of doomsday.

Yet in this round of simulation, that fixed date had changed.

It came a few days earlier…

“Could it be because of the nuclear bomb?”

Su Ze read the text and raised a question.

This was indeed a variable.

In previous simulations he had also obtained intelligence on a nuclear bomb, but no one detonated it, or if someone did, it was so far away that his intelligence network could not cover the event…

“This is worth investigating further…”

Su Ze made a preliminary conclusion and planned to observe this point in subsequent simulations.

However…

It was currently impossible to continue observing.

Because he had to choose the Talent “Arrival.”

After all, it was a golden Talent, and Su Ze believed that since this Talent was the highest grade, it must have its reason, so he could not miss it…

Moreover, he did not have to worry about not having enough simulation time.

Because after this round of cooldown, he would have a full 19 hours to simulate doomsday to his heart’s content, and he could simply choose another simulation reward at the last moment…

“Bang!”

A noise came from the guestroom.

It seemed that some idiot had accidentally bumped their head and was holding back embarrassment from making a sound.

Su Ze smiled knowingly, came back to his senses, and first selected the simulation reward.

『Simulation reward ‘Arrival (Gold)’ chosen』

『Apocalypse Simulator enters cooldown: 19 hours 59 minutes』

Before long, the guestroom door was slowly pushed open.

Chen Keqing cautiously poked her head out.

“Awake? There are ingredients in the fridge. How about you use your culinary skill to prepare two breakfasts?”

In the study, Su Ze tilted his head and smiled at her.

“Oh… okay! I’ll go right away!”

As soon as she heard that the task involved her specialty, cooking, Chen Keqing immediately got excited.

Before long, Chen Keqing brought two exquisite breakfasts to the table.

Su Ze was already seated at the table, ready, but he was on a phone call.

“Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, okay,” he said a lot.

『Wow…』

『This really feels like having a successful businessman husband who is busy with work…』

『Eek, it’s like a flash marriage, so embarrassing, hehe…』

Unaware that her inner thoughts were being leaked, Chen Keqing puckered her lips and sweetly exclaimed.

On the other side, Su Ze quickly finished the call and then said while eating breakfast, “After we finish eating, let’s move to a new house. It’ll be good to get some exercise.”

Chen Keqing opened her mouth in surprise: “Huh?”

A few hours later.

Chen Keqing helped carry a bag of luggage to the new home Su Ze had just bought.

“Ah, I’m exhausted…”

After putting the luggage on the ground, Chen Keqing collapsed onto the sofa.

Actually, there was not much to move; she just had poor physical strength.

As for why they were moving…

Of course it was because of this complex, which Su Ze had chosen countless times in the simulation as the doomsday spawn point, the SC-35 Safe Zone.

Naturally, at this very moment, no one knew this code…

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Su Ze followed from behind, casually closed the door, and asked Chen Keqing, “By the way, you high school kids still have class tonight, right?”
